Can we get another sloads thread?

Ask, and thou shall receive!

Or in Geordie: Shy bairns get nowt.

I am pretty sure we will get it. Shieldstackers are so broken on set, because they cannot do nothing else than refress shields and standing still. Then they die and yell NERF! They have minimun hp sets to maximise shieldstacking and dps. Two bars full of shieldstack and dps skills. 0 mobility, heal, cc and other survability. Just shields/burst.

ah, a misinformed sorc-hater. Fyi, sorcs can deal with sloads easier than almost everyone else. This is not where the qq comes from.

@Biro123

Where does he mention sorcs? What he describes is a shield-stacking technique used on multiple classes. Any magic class has access to several potent shields.

Sorcs are right now, IMO, imbalanced but not op. They’re too tanky, largely because of shields. Played well, they’re as tanky as a stam dk...which is ridiculous. @ZOS_Wrobel totally let the game get away from him, and it’s time for some new ideas on the combat team, lol.

But their dps is too low in PvP. Or if not too low, too inconsistent. Some of their attacks hit so hard they’re almost like FPS skills. But most don’t hit hard enough at all. They need some dps help. a sorc has a really hard time 1v1 killing me as a stamblade, even in open terrain when they catch me off guard. Kinda sad for a dps class.

In 2014 they were a class that pushed out unbelievable damage at the expense of being squishy in light armor. They’ve evolved to be moderate dps super tanks. Then given irritating skills like eye of the storm that encourages Zerg cancer trains. They used to be fun, but now I hate p,aching mine in PvP because he’s not a good dps anymore. It’s weird, but what can we do? Write forum posts making suggestions to Zos? Bwa ha ha ha. Yeah...that’ll work.

Well the description of shields-stacking and burst fits specs more than anyone else..

You're right, damage is lacking and I honestly think that much of the sorc hate comes from those who think they have the best damage, and therefore shouldn't have survivability(like cloth casters in many other mmos), where the fact is that survivability is good, damage subpar, which is ok in my book.

Plus no other class besides warden can shield stack prior to being in execute, effectively any way.
